Listing the stuff you want to be in /S/V in the UnmanagedFiles file
should get you the same result.
This was an idea since some programs want to install files into a /var
location. If I point it to R/Unmanaged (to have it create the files
correctly) the program might want to write to that directory while
running.
How would one configure a program so it writes to /S/Variable during
runtime, but the files get installed into R/Unmanaged?
Isn't this exactly what unionfs can solve?
Yes, unionsandbox solves this, but should we count (demand) that
everyone has unionfs available?
It would be best if there where a working solution for fibosandbox too,
but is that possible? I've not followed the development on gobolinux for
a couple of months so I'm not sure what the current status of fibo vs
unionfs are... I remember we talked about moving to a whole new layout,
with programs thinking that they are installing in /System/Links while
they actually are redirected to /Programs/Name/Version, and that
/System/Links would be renamed to /System/Index and that all the dirs
"Executables, Shared, Libraries, Headers" should be replaced with the
"real" names: bin, shared, lib, include, to exactly mirror the layout
underneath the /Programs...
What are the problems demanding on unionfs? Isn't unionfs available for
the supported kernels?
Ironically, I haven't got the unionsandbox to work on this box, but that
could be because this system is a messy mixture between 011, 012 and
013... =) Could anyone give me a hint on how to try out the
unionsandbox? I don't even remember how to enable it.
